According to McKinsey’s 2025 State of AI report, 88% of organisations now use AI in at least one business function. But broad adoption is not the same as good adoption. Most organisations are still working out how to use AI well, govern it sensibly, and turn pilots into value without losing sight of their values.
Our AI consultancy helps boards and executive teams in the UK, Europe, and globally do exactly that. We work with organisations of every type and size — listed companies, privately held businesses, charities, membership organisations, regulators, professional bodies, and the public sector — to get started with AI responsibly, and to scale it well once they have.
How we help
We guide you through the full AI adoption journey: from understanding the basics, through identifying use cases that fit your strategy, to putting them into action with the right governance and assurance. We use our 10 steps to getting started with AI and our Responsible AI framework to keep you grounded in your values and your obligations.
Engagements are scoped around what you actually need. Pricing is on application, and we will give you a clear proposal after a short scoping conversation.
Empowering non-technical leaders
Boards, executives, and senior managers are increasingly expected to understand and champion the responsible use of AI. We give non-technical leaders the knowledge and practical tools to do that confidently. Our interactive online and in-person sessions demystify the components of Responsible AI without jargon, so you can make informed decisions and shape the right culture for your organisation.
We will help you to:
- Understand the ethical implications of AI: grasp the benefits and risks, and learn how to identify and address ethical challenges.
- Promote Responsible AI practices: embed a Responsible AI framework across how you build, buy, and use AI.
- Build trust and confidence: create a culture that earns trust from employees, customers, and stakeholders.
- Lead with confidence: guide your organisation from getting started with AI to scaling it ethically and responsibly.
Equipping your technical teams
For technical teams, we combine foundational Responsible AI principles with practical, hands-on application. We help developers, data scientists, and product owners identify how to build the seven keys of Responsible AI into what they ship, and how to plug their work into a robust governance framework.
Contact us to empower your technical team to build trustworthy AI solutions.
An AI literacy programme for everyone
Using AI wisely, and understanding its impact, is now a baseline expectation rather than a luxury. The EU AI Act requires providers and deployers of AI systems to ensure a sufficient level of AI literacy among the relevant staff. Beyond that legal floor, every organisation needs its people to be able to work safely with AI tools, spot risks, and ask the right questions.
Our AI literacy programme empowers everyone in your organisation, regardless of technical background, to navigate the age of AI. Through engaging workshops and accessible resources, we break down complex concepts and explore the practical implications of using AI.
This programme will give your team the tools to:
- Demystify AI: understand what AI is, how it works, and its potential impact on their role and industry.
- Identify opportunities: spot how AI can enhance productivity, improve decision-making, and drive innovation.
- Address ethical concerns: understand Responsible AI development and use, including issues like bias and fairness.
- Embrace the future: develop the confidence and knowledge to thrive in an AI-driven world.
Beyond expertise: partnership
We are passionate about helping leaders use AI as a force for good, and we want to be partners in your Responsible AI journey. We collaborate closely with you, providing ongoing guidance and support from getting started with AI through to growing confidence and scaling capability.
Working through the risks of AI
Once you have a clear set of ideas for using AI, we work through the risks and how to mitigate them, using our Responsible AI framework. By the end of an engagement you will have a comprehensive plan for moving forward responsibly, including the areas you need to actively manage:
- Ethics: you could let your algorithms play on human psychology and nudge people into behaving in certain ways. Should you?
- Bias: is your data truly representative or could it embed bias?
- Data privacy: do you have genuine, informed consent to use personal data?
- Transparency: how do the algorithms in your model weight the data, and are outcomes clear or black box?
- Explainability: can you explain how your AI models work, and to whom?
- Regulation: are you compliant with the regulations that apply to you, including GDPR, the UK Age Appropriate Design Code, the EU AI Act, and emerging regimes in the UK, US, and other jurisdictions?
- Safety and cyber security: will your model behave reliably, and is the data feeding it safe and securely held?
- Diversity and inclusion: is your AI inclusive by design and does it work well for everyone it touches?
“The ethical issues that arise from AI… require expertise and insights across a wide range of disciplines, from technology and regulatory compliance to philosophy, psychology, and sociology — and everything in between.”

Frequently asked questions
What does an AI consultancy engagement look like?
Every engagement is shaped to the organisation. Some clients want a short scoping piece to identify AI use cases. Others want a longer programme covering strategy, governance, and rollout. We will start with a short conversation to understand what you need and propose a scope that fits.
How much does AI consultancy cost?
Pricing is on application because engagements vary. Get in touch for a proposal.
Do you only work with UK organisations?
No. We work with clients in the UK, across Europe, and globally, and with organisations of every type and size.
Can you help us comply with the EU AI Act?
We can help you understand where the EU AI Act applies to you and design the governance, training, and assurance to support your compliance position. We are not lawyers, so for formal legal advice we recommend you also engage a specialist law firm.
Do you work with the public sector and charities?
Yes. We work across the private, public, and not-for-profit sectors, including charities, membership organisations, professional bodies, and regulators.
